Don’t Let Student Loans Delay Your Homeownership Dreams

If you’re looking to buy a home, you may be wondering how your student loan debt could impact those plans. While everyone’s situation is unique, your goal may be more within your reach than you realize.

According to data from NAR, “When asked specifically about purchasing a home, half of nonhomeowners say student loan debt is delaying them from purchasing a home (51%).”

In the same NAR report, data shows many current homeowners have student loan debt themselves. “Nearly one-quarter of all home buyers, and 37% of first-time buyers, had student debt, with a typical amount of $30,000.”

You may be able to do the same, especially if you have a steady source of income. Apartment Therapy drives this point home. “. . . buying a home with student loans is...

Owning Is More Affordable than Renting in the Majority of the Country

If you were thinking about buying a home this year, but already pressed pause on your plans due to rising home prices and mortgage rates, there’s something you should consider.
